Unto Death Of The Cross (Feat: Nardine Youssef)

Asaph Tunes aims to encourage young Orthodox Christian artists to write, compose and sing new songs using contemporary music
Description
Music is an integral part of our make up as human beings. Music has always been found to inspire many different emotions in the human soul that nothing else could. This is not a twenty first century find but it has been right from the beginning of creation. We read in the book of Genesis hidden among a long list of names of the sons of Adam and Eve, and only four generations removed from them a character who’s name is Jubal, the bible says about him that “he was the father of all those who play the harp and flute.” Genesis 4:21. Later on we know that David not only wrote psalms that were and are still used for worship but he also assigned musicians and chief musician who’s primary role is to play music in the temple worship.
The Orthodox Church has always embraced music in its worship; some of the music that is used in the Orthodox Church worship have stood the test of time and have until today taken the worshippers into a spiritual realm that prepared them for receiving the Holy Eucharist.

Historically music was not restricted to church worship alone but there are many saints who have offered the church a great library of songs and poems that taught Christians their orthodox faith against the many heresies. A perfect example of this in the Coptic Church is the mid-night psalmody especially the Theotokia (praises to saint Mary) which very accurately spells out the Orthodox Church’s theology of St Mary. Other contemporary examples are the many poems of the late Pope Shenouda III.

It is for this reason that Asaph Tunes, aims is to encourage young Orthodox Christian artists to write, compose and sing new songs using contemporary music. A very important aspect of a song is its educational value that it offers to listeners. In other words the lyrics must present a substantial theological teaching about the Orthodox Church teaching and theology. Asaph Tunes role is to encourage and present the work of those artists to the best quality and provide it in the most common media available such as iTunes and sound cloud and various other internet radios stations.
